The tty buffers (and any line discipline buffers) must be flushed after the UART hardware has shutdown; otherwise, a racing open on the same tty may receive data from the previous session, which is a security hazard. However, holding the port mutex while flushing the line discipline buffers creates a lock inversion if the set_termios() handler takes the port mutex (as it does in the followup patch, 'serial: Fix locking for uart driver set_termios method'. Flush the ldisc buffers after dropping the port mutex; the tty lock is still held which prevents a concurrent open() from advancing while flushing. Since no new rx data is possible after uart_shutdown() until a new open reinitializes the port, the later flush has no impact on what data is being discarded.
